Backend-provided dropdowns (like those to select a host) now debounce the filter input. Previously, every keystroke triggered an HTTP request to fetch suggestions. Now, requests are batched with a short delay so only the final input fires a query. If you use dropdowns with many options served from the backend, you'll see fewer redundant requests and a snappier experience.
